Three small steps.

  1. Choose the duration and review or replace the practice passage.
  2. Start the test and type the passage into the answer box. Pasting is disabled during the test.
  3. Finish or wait for the timer, then check your speed and accuracy and restart to practice again.

A few things to know.

Up to 5,000 practice characters. A character is a visible grapheme cluster; spacing, case and punctuation count. WPM is correctly matched characters divided by five and elapsed minutes, not a count of dictionary words. Accuracy compares the current answer with the same positions in the passage. Corrected mistakes are not retained. This measures a practice session, not a certified assessment; input methods and text difficulty affect comparisons.

A little more clarity.

How is typing speed calculated?

Correctly matched characters ÷ 5 ÷ elapsed minutes. Characters per minute uses all characters currently typed. The timer starts when you press Start test and continues while the tab is in the background.

Can I practice in another language?

Yes. Replace the passage with your own text. The test compares visible characters and supports input methods for different scripts.
